Petunia Crosses the Rainbow Bridge

Last week we brought Petunia to the vet because her mouth was tender and bleeding.  We were praying for or a bad tooth or infection, but he was not able to get a good look at the back of her mouth so we made an appointment to bring her back yesterday so he could sedate her and get a good look.  Unfortunately it was an aggressive form of carcinoma that shattered her jaw.  It was beyond repair even for a perfectly healthy dog.  We had no idea how bad it was, she was eating and even playing for days in this condition.  Now she can play and eat all she wants with out pain and be diaper free!  She was a strong little fighter and I am honored to have been able to spend the last few months of her life with her.
